I think it's fair to say that professor Marandi, on this occasion, turned HardTalk into SoftTalk. Clearly Stephen Sakar struggled and so did people whispering in his earpiece.

We disagree and have disagreed with Iran on many many issues, but we’ve come to the realization that Iran is not the problem of our world and our ummah in particular and I am saying this as someone whose name alone might elicit a very strong dislike and possibly hate by certain religious groups in Iran. America and its proxy militias in the Middle East, the western backed apartheid regime of Israel is the one currently occupying Israel and is accused of genocide, so the professor is right that the presenter was trying to distort and distract from the main issue : the slaughter of at least 11 thousand children in Gaza in less than 3 months and the destruction of the entirety of that country enclave. The most brutal and violent civilization humanity has known is the western one and they still have weapons that could destroy the entire world as we know it…but thank God that they haven’t used it since WW2, maybe it’s a miracle from Fod that they haven’t and not because they are responsible actors.

In this case, however, I thought Masadi's testimony/eloquence was particularly powerful. A big drawback to the msm liberal drivel and their mouthpieces is that their ideological assumptions and vapid animosity prevent a more structured critique of the Iranian regime that might actually engage/chime with some Iranian regime opponents.

I watched this video today, a day after the ICJ had already issued its verdict on the possibility of genocide in Gaza, which sheds a very different light on this interview.

An academic per excellence

Profesor Marandi won the debate

Who can argue with a man who is on point, succinct and logical? Marandi by my experience has always been all of that and then some. I admire how he smiles when he is confronted with conflation to support the present force inflicting itself upon the M.E and spontaneously and skilfully and perfectly naturally brings the focus right back on point.

Free Palestine from the river to the sea Palestine 🇵🇸 will be free

This guy is a journalist? Well clear for who.

Professor Marandi is a brilliant, calm debater who knows what he's talking about. He remains unruffled and perfectly rational during this somewhat hostile interview. His main point is the horrific suffering, the genocide, of the poor people of Gaza perpetrated by Israel backed up by the USA. He points out where the real evil lies. We can see the unspeakable war crimes committed by Israel in Gaza and its theft of Palestinian land. Its crimes in the West Bank are completely horrific and obscene. The US, Britain and Germany give unconditional support to Israel and the sadistic warmonger Netanyahu. Why is Netanyahu and his government not in jail? Steve Sakur seems to always defend Israel. He's like a spokesman for Israel. He didn't get away with it in this interview with the brilliant Professor Mirandi. The professor is a credit to his country and he highlights Israel's cruel depravity and evil genocide of the people of Gaza. The world now sees exactly what Israel and Netanyahu are really like. It's an apartheid colonial, warmongering state which is illegally talking Palestinian land and involved in ethnic cleansing and land grabbing. The world shouldn't tolerate it. The US has so much to answer for. It could stop Israel's crimes against Gaza if it wanted to.

Sakur consistently turns Hardtalk into hard if not impossible to listen to talk....another aggressive delivery by the bully, who, with his obnoxious effrontery, is in general, too ignorant, too biased, and too judgemental, and much too hypocritical to conduct a civil and constructive interview...all credit to Marandi who speaks calmly, clearly, and knowledgeably. Sakur (as usual) huffed and puffed (and gruffed) and blew his own house down. BBC, get someone who can conduct a meaningful interview. To finish: Sakur repeatedly quibbles about whether Israel is committing genocide...how puerile. So let's just describe Israel as a mass murdering regime, because apparently the Israelis own the word genocide. Post the filming of this program, The ICJ seems to have made a ruling contrary to what Sakur suggests it should have. All credit to Marandi who faced not hardtalk, but softheaded Western-ideological propaganda.

Why don’t you let your guest talk and keep interrupting him? What are trying to hide?

I wonder why you can not find this video in bbc channel

The man is a true professor... The BBC anchor has to change the topic several times. Shame to western colonisation
